We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a Banach space $X$ of density $\kappa$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is linearly isomorphic to its $\ell_1$-sum $\left(\bigoplus_{\kappa}\mathcal{F}(X)\right)_{\ell_1}$. This provides an extension…

Rectangular TVS-cone metric spaces are introduced and Kannan's fixed point theorem is proved in these spaces. Two approaches are followed for the proof. At first we prove the theorem by a direct method using the structure of the space…

We expand \v{C}ech cohomology of a topological space $X$ with values in a presheaf on $X$ to \v{C}ech cohomology of a commutative ring with unity $R$ with values in a presheaf on $R$. The strategy is to observe that both the set of open…

This paper addresses the study and characterizations of variational convexity of extended-real-valued functions on Banach spaces. This notion has been recently introduced by Rockafellar, and its importance has been already realized and…

We show that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of an uncountable collection of Banach spaces is a locally convex direct sum of complemented subspaces of countable subsums. As a corollary we prove that a complemented…

We give an abstract approach to approximations with a wide range of regularity classes $X$ in spaces of pseudocontinuable functions $K^p_\vartheta$, where $\vartheta$ is an inner function and $p>0$. More precisely, we demonstrate a general…

This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is…

It is known that if $M$ is a finite-dimensional Banach space, or a strictly convex space, or the space $\ell_1$, then every non-expansive bijection $F: B_M \to B_M$ is an isometry. We extend these results to non-expansive bijections $F: B_E…

If $K$ is a compact Hausdorff space so that the Banach lattice $C(K)$ is isometrically lattice isomorphic to a dual of some Banach lattice, then $C(K)$ can be decomposed as the $\ell^\infty$-direct sum of the carriers of a maximal singular…

The main result says that every surjective isometry between two ideal Banach function spaces satisfying certain conditions can be presented as a composition of a measurable transformation of a variable and multiplication by a function.

Let $X$ be a topological space. A subset of $C(X)$, the space of continuous real-valued functions on $X$, is a partially ordered set in the pointwise order. Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are topological spaces, and $A(X)$ and $A(Y)$ are subsets…

We show that the problem whether every $1$-separably injective Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_\infty$ is undecidable. Namely, unlike under the continuum hypothesis, assuming Martin's axiom and the negation of the…

This paper contains a study of the separable form $J_s(\cdot)$ of the classical Jung constant. We first establish, following Davis \cite{davis}, that a Banach space $X$ is $1$-separably injective if and only if $J_s(X)=1$. This…

Let \(X\) be a compact metric space and \(E\) be a Banach space. \(\lip (X, E)\) denotes the Banach space of all \(E\)-valued little Lipschitz functions on \(X\). We show that \(\lip (X, E)^{**}\) is isometrically isomorphic to Banach space…

We investigate the following problem posed by Cabello Sanch\'ez, Castillo, Kalton, and Yost: Let $K$ be a nonmetrizable compact space. Does there exist a nontrivial twisted sum of $c_0$ and $C(K)$, i.e., does there exist a Banach space $X$…

In this note, we investigate the renorming theory of Banach spaces with property $(\beta)$ of Rolewicz. In particular, we give a "coordinate-free" proof of the fact that every Banach space with property $(\beta)$ admits an equivalent norm…

We prove that if K is a Gruenhage compact space then C(K)* admits an equivalent, strictly convex dual norm. As a corollary, we show that if X is a Banach space and X* is the |.|-closed linear span of K, where K is a Gruenhage compact in the…

In this paper we consider the "quasidensity" of a subset of the product of a Banach space and its dual, and give a connection between quasidense sets and sets of "type (NI)". We discuss "coincidence sets" of certain convex functions and…

This paper brings new results on the FPP in Banach spaces $X$ with a Schauder basis. We first deal with the problem of whether there is a Banach space isomorphic to $\co$ having the FPP. We show that the answer is negative if $X$ contains a…

We prove the following local version of Blaschke--Kakutani's characterization of ellipsoids: Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional real vector space, $B\subset V$ a convex body with 0 in its interior, and ${2\le k<\dim V}$ an integer. Suppose…
